Thread a long strand of white yarn through your yarn needle. With the edges of the two panels side by side, sew with the yarn needle through the loops on either edge. Pull tight once you have sewn up the gap between the panels, knot, and weave any ends into the panels. |
6. Using the yarn needle and the ribbon, sew over the seam. Sew in about every fifth row of knitting. You will be sewing one strand of ribbon one way, and then using a second strand of ribbon to sew the opposite direction (see close-up picture). Tie a bow on each end of the rows |

Leg Warmers with Stripes
Instructions | |
1. Note: This set of warmers was made from the classic wool. They are nice and warm and the knitting looks great. Be aware, however, that when the wool is washed it might shrink. If you want them to stay the size that you have made them, they will have to be dry-cleaned. | |
2. 1. Using two strands of Natural Mix yarn as one, e-wrap (wrapping loops on pegs that look like series of lowercase e’s) two times around loom and knit off (pulling bottom loop over top loop and peg). | |
3. 2. Knit 10 rows and carefully reach inside loom and place loops from first row back over pegs. This makes brim or cuff for top of the leg warmer. Knit this row. | |
4. 3. Continue knitting until leg warmer is 14" long (or desired length) using following pattern: 6 rows Rich Red yarn Next 4 rows Natural Mix yarn Next 4 rows Rich Red yarn Next 4 rows Natural Mix yarn Next 4 rows Rich Red yarn Next 4 rows Natural Mix yarn Next 4 rows Rich Red yarn Next 4 rows Natural Mix yarn Next 4 rows Rich Red yarn Next 4 rows Natural Mix yarn Next 4 rows Rich Red yarn Next 4 rows Natural Mix yarn Next 6 rows Rich Red yarn Next 6 rows Natural Mix yarn | |

Knifty Knitter Flag Blanket
This project measures 40.5" x 60" -- This project is done in panels and can be easily taken with you in your travels. |
Instructions: |
1. You will be using 2 strands of yarn as one throughout the entire project. |
2. Split panels: Use the Knifty Knitter Round Loom in Blue and 2 strands of blue yarn to e-wrap 9 pegs. Wrap these 9 pegs then knit back and forth for 36 rows. Change to the red yarn and knit 54 more rows. Create 4 of these panels. |
3. E-wrap the loom with the blue yarn and knit 36 rows then change to the white yarn and knit 54 more rows. Create 3 of these panels. |
4. Long panels: E-wrap 9 pegs on the loom with the white yarn and knit 90 rows. Create 3 of these panels. |
5. E-wrap 9 pegs on the loom with the red yarn and knit 90 rows. Create 3 of these panels. |
6. Use the yarn needle and sew the stripes together to make blanket. Cut the 13 stars from felt and sew on with sewing thread and needle. |
Note: When this blanket was first knit the designer knit the blue background using the Knifty Knitter Round Loom Yellow, all in one piece. Because the pegs on this loom are wider apart it knits a different gauge than the blue loom, which the stripes were knit on. The pegs are closer together on the smaller loom. It was very hard to make the blanket sew together right, so we have changed the pattern and hope that you will enjoy creating this fun blanket. |
